Love the colour on the Nishiki. I'm not a big fan of conversions, but this one just simply looks great.

What's next prolly, a hi-ten road conversion for your trick bike?

Doing 180s and riding as usual. Landed a pretty big 180 and felt a pop. Did another and as I was riding fakie, the frame felt "limp". Got off the bike. Examined it. Nothing... Stepped on the non-drive side pedal and SNAP.
My Large BMW Gangsta Track is getting painted this week. So I guess it's afternoon park laps for me. No tricks for a few days... |
my theory is the BMW fork was stronger than the frame. The Surly forks snap really easily from 180s and I think introducing that beefy beast just transferred the load to the weakest adjacent connection. At least I wasn't in traffic or bombing the bridge.
|
Now I want a gangsta. I don't like or dislike
the way it looks but the durability is hard to argue with. |

I figured I'd repost my bike, as it is "complete" til I make the move to clipless pedals. I've ditched the stock saddle for a specialized one that I picked up in the bargain bin at my lbs, and got some Nashbar Pursuit bars.. with tarcky-ish obnoxious tape :lol:

surely it would be a limited lifespan thing? |

Quite the badass purchase, I'd say. :D |
